Facts & pricing

Free plan: one event type, unlimited meetings, one connected calendar, basic integrations
Standard plan ~$10/user/mo (annual) or ~$12/mo monthly
Teams plan ~$16/seat/mo (annual)
Connects with Google, Outlook, Zoom, and many other tools
One of the most widely-used scheduling tools among individuals and SMBs

Pricing: Free plan; paid from ~$10/user/mo

Caveats

The free plan limits you to a single event type and one calendar, so anyone needing multiple meeting types (e.g., a 15-min intro and a 60-min demo) needs to pay. Advanced routing and team features live in higher tiers.

Bottom line

Pick Calendly when you want a dead-simple, widely-recognized booking link for calls and can live within one meeting type on the free plan.
